#3ds strait dump to tape
2 messages in this thread
Just got my first 3ds v1.02 educational, never could aford it before, also have
to stick with targa 64+ untill I can afford new DPS.
Question 1? How can I output file in 640-480 or 512-486 straight to tape? I
have not a controllable deck and I always get mssg. Vtr not detected. Can I
bypass this just for still titles or gifs? I could always do this with Ani-Pro.
Question 2? If I purchase Evo 9650 for single frame animation will I also have
to purchase contoller card or will 3d Studio contol this deck direct.
Would appreciate any input to satisfy my Autoenthusiasm.

Hi Rick,
Question 1… You should be able to display 512×486 stills on your Targa+ and
feed the signal straight to your deck. Likewise, you should be able to play
flics out through the Targa+, either in 3DS or AniPro. You need to make sure
you have the Targa+ drivers, the appropriate system configuration (drivers
loaded, memory exclusion for the Targa+, etc.), and, if using 3DS, setup 3DS
VIBCFG Render Display to Vibrant, selecting the "Targa+ (use TMODE.EXE)
Automode" if you can. Don't select the Targa+ driver if you can avoid it.
Question 2… I would assume you'd need some type of controller mechanism.
The Sanyo GVR series has a built-in controller, but I doubt the EVO does.
Someone else will hopefully clarify this.
